I blame the UFC

[KB Warrior]

They have too many cards and when they try to shuffle things around and fly a late replacement to the other side of the world and he misses weight its the UFC’s fault for having the whole PPV rely on this fake title fight. There is no other fight on the card that can pick up the slack and make this card salvageable. I’m not paying for this crap and I put 90% of the blame on the UFC not Romero.

You've actually paid for UFC? EVER?

Because it's not like Romero has never made the weight cut before and knows his body and if he was in doubt he'd make the weight he could've declined or told the ufc he might not make the weight so someone else could have filled.

there are other fighters who could've filled, literally anyone who won their last fight would've sufficed

The UFC sure does deserve a lot of backlash for what they've been doing, but missing weight is completely on Romero himself and nobody else.

I guess it would have taken him missing weight on 4 weeks notice once before, to give him doubts this time.

I thought Luke would win this fight, but lol at all the Romero fans making up reasons to not blame him for missing weight. Scapegoat the UFC, talk about his 'short' camp, talk about how if he wins he should still get the next title shot, etc. We should be praising Luke for still taking this fight after all the nonsense up to this point. I like Romero but...

 

[bergueg]

Gay jesus should have taken his weight loss more seriously, instead of jerking around

 

[Skarsgard]

This is 100% on Romero.

 

[Leinster Rugby]

at this stage I'm just glad we still get to see this fight

 

[SuBB]

its not reomeros fault that the division is so shallow,, tight ass ufc let go of Mousasi who in my mind made the right decision,, then again could have missed out on a money fight for the MW belt against conor...
I think Conor was right he is worth $4 Billion

UFC=Conor

When did sherdog become a bunch of whiny fucking crybabies. I'm not even a huge Romero fan but the guy steps up and takes a fight on short notice, who cares if he misses weight by a few pounds? Especially from a fighter who has never missed weight before. It's not like he's Johnny Henricks.

It's like you guys have never seen this happen with replacements before.

I mean for Christ's sake 3 pounds < a full camp.

Lol, blame the UFC for an unprofessional fighter that chose to take a fight on four weeks notice and missed weight. Sound logic...for Sherdog I guess.

The belt if not fake. If it is recognized by the UFC and if athletic commission has no objections, then it is no different from any other "real" UFC belt.

Probably just part of his weight cutting routine.
